started in life with every prospect of doing well and had they both attended to the good advice that was given them on entering their new vocation it would have been well for them but bad habits cling to us as ivy to a wall and the idle inattentive boy found a difficulty in settling down into a dili gent business youth the novelty of his new life soon wore off and as of yore he began to feel every thing a trouble the getting up in the morning was his chief dilliculty to lie in bed to the last ment was austin's plan then all his du ties were performed hurriedly and it was nothing but a scramble and commotion till he had rushed to his train which however ik generally managed to lose thus matters went on till his employ ers would put up with his unpunctuality no longer so at the time that alan burne was promoted to his first rise austin compton received his dismissal as his mother was not very well off he had to bear all the inconvenience of strait ened circumstances and the various straits which the youth was put to brought him to realize the advantages of tiie situation which he had allowed to slip away from him now that he had become practically ac quainted with the many hardships that idleness brings he resolved unit if ever a good situation came in his way again he would discard his old habits and do his best to keep it but it was a long time before austin obtained employment again good situa tions arc not lo be found at every street coiner and so he found but at last an other oliicc opened its doors to him and once more he had lhe same means of earn ing a livelihood the years have rolled on and the two friends are now middle aged men but their regard for one another is still as strong as when they were bids at school then they were both poor with the world before them to make their way but now their circumstances are different alan burne through his untiring perse verance mse step by step till at hist he became managing man in the establish ment where he first begged that a trial might be given him he has proved worthy of hia hire and in the receipt ofa handsome income is now reaping the fruits of his industry aiislin compton on the contrary though hard working and persevering enough now is still a poor man he just manages to make both ends meet but the ball that he cast from him in hi.s thought less youth has never come in his path again and though thankful that well is well so far yet a sadness conies over his spirits when he thinks ofthe opportunity that he let slip but it is no good repining over what cannot be mended and as austin comp ton tells his young friends if they will only persevere and grasp their opportu nities of success and climb the ladder step by step they may some day place tlieir feet upon the top and he names his friend alan burne as an example â€” british juvenille _-..-. how to live together p.y mus francis i kaithill it is a heart-stirring thing to stand in a great school-hall and to listen to home sweet home given forth jubilantly from hundreds of vigorous young lungs and yet sometimes a misgiving will creep ! in as to whether to some at least even of those light-hearted lads home sweet home may not carry a cruel irony truly home should be sweet seeing â€¢ that there dwell together husbands and 1 wives who have elected of their own free will to walk band-in-hand through ' life ; parents and the children to whom they have given birth and nurture ; broth i ers and sisters who have slept under one j roof and sat at one board from babyhood ! and truly home may be sweet â€” so sweet that long after it has passed away its : tender memories its dead joys will live i in loving hearts and a stray relic a scrap j of faded chintz a cracked vase will be treasured with fond care by some lonely old woman fourscore but who can say that it is always so ? ; who cannot call to mind many a home rich in comfort rich it may be in the far better gift of love but poor in pleas antness and peace by reason of ungrac ious doing sharp words cold looks ? our thoughts travel back to a loug wellspread table round wliich we once saw gathered a goodly band of boys and girls just home from school they had been glad enough to come they had just been telling how regularly they had marked off one by one the flying days of the half year ; and yet now wheu the father's voice was heard sharply taxing the mother with another thing neglected as usual and she with heightened color retorted that he was always unreasona ble the gay talk of the young ones died away and in our heart we re-echoed solomon's saying as to the dinner of herbs and yet those angry looks and words were not born of ungovernable tempers or of selfish tyranny these demons are we hope and believe happily rare â€” happily for to exorcise them is a task worthy of . hercules nor did the discord spring from i the unreasonable impatience and fretful ' ness too com mon in us all when sick or sorry no ; it had its source in better impulses wraped and mistaken as even the best impulses are apt to be it seems a paradox and yet it is undoubtedly true that the faults of those nearest and dear est to us not only grieve us more keenly than the faults of our acquaintance but also arouse in us for the time at least a livelier indignation xor is this really strange the failings of the world at large touch us chiefly in so far as they in flict suffering or injury on ourselves or others but the failings of those we love do this and much more than this they distort the ideal we would fain cherish in our minds an ideal which though it may not create our love is the source of all our satisfaction in it we cannot rest while disapproval or contempt are jarring ever so slightly with our deep affection we cannot carelessly dismiss the grievance with an unspoken stricture and forget it we long to reform or at least to testify to give vent to our pain to extort either an avowal of error wliich may condemn offence or an explanation which may jus tify it ; and just because we are so anxious we cannot always seek temperately for the relief we need hamlet's people might dipping all his faults in their affections convert his gybes to graces but it is not so that our affections mostly work and is it wrong then that we should de sire to see our beloved without flaw ? that we should seek to shape them altogether to our mind 1 not wrong but only un wise because our desire is beyond hope and must entail on us the sharp sting of certain disappointment let us by all means do what we can to help them as we would be helped ourselves to live more worthily ; but let us for we had far better â€” face the truth and recognize clear ly that in none of mortal mould can we j find combined all excellencies it is well nigh impossible to lind iu the enthusiast the equable and placid temper wliich belongs naturally to calm nature it is rare to find in the woman highly endowed with social gifts strong domestic lastes or in the philosopher pondering over some deep problem that minute attention to the small amenities of life which comes instinctive ly to those moving constantly and with disengaged minds in general society why then should we not treat a human char acter as we treat a human face ? we may roam the world over before we find one faultless in form and coloring yet we do not protest when in the loveliest some de fect grows visible to our scrutinizing gaze and so granted that we find in those among whom our lot is cast something in which we can take delight and pride something which commands our love let us accept as cheerfully as we may the at tendant conditions let us expect to see him who charms us by his vivid fancies his bright sallies of wit from time to time unnerved and wayward to see her whose gentleness and sound judgment soothe our harassed spirit sometimes too phleg matic and prosaic ; to see the student for get to hand a chair and the brilliant talk er weary of the unbroken monotony of his own fireside for so it will be strive against it as we may ; and if we are discontentedly de manding of each the one thing he lacks if we are restlessly chaffing over the one blemish in our fair picture instead of judg ing it as a whole we are a torment and it may be worse to ourselves and to the beings for whose happiness we daily pray lucilia had bitter cause to rue in that she brooked it

pens ; and we think pitifully of mrs furnival in orley farm a drag on the ambitious lawyer who had floated up above her homely life and yearning vainly amid the luxuries with which he had surrounded her for the old days when they were young together and when in his dingy chambers she mended his socks aud was sufficient to him it was his do ing rather than hers that they had drifted so far apart and yet she would have been a wiser woman and a happier wife if she had accepted her fate so much for the defects to which all flesh is heir but it may sometimes hap pen that the trial comes through no de fect in one or the other but simply through those diversities of temperament without which this world of our would lose much of its zest and interest at least so we all say through it it is hard sometimes to be true to our creed it is very hard for the man or woman of profound and concentrated affections to share or fully realize the widely diffused interests of more general aud open hearted characters â€” nay perhaps it is well that they can not for they would either be worn out by the great strain on their own keeuev emotions or those emotions would be blunted by too constant exercise it is only when our objects of love are few that it is possible to lavish on them a deep and continuous intensity of feeling but when we lavish it we are too prone to require it again from beings all

she would say sighing bitterly that it was hard he was all the world to her and she but one of many to him and it was hard her pang was doubtless sharp yet she had no right to murmur she and her boy

nursed that pride aud pleasure for her own sake and for his â€” if she had at any cost kept back the com plaints that came crowding to her lips they could never draw him closer to her they might and
